March 2028: Russian forces capture the Estonian city of Narva and the Baltic Sea island of Hieuma. The attack on the Baltic states has begun. Now, Europe’s failure to modernize its military after the Ukraine war and its lack of basic capabilities are coming back to haunt it. Will Article 5 of NATO apply? How will the alliance decide? Will it risk nuclear war?
We’ve become accustomed to things ending well in the end. But what if they don’t? What if Russia wins? This is a hypothetical future scenario presented by renowned political scientist and military expert Carlo Masala in his new book, but it starkly illustrates what is at stake today.
